This setup truly is god. I have an Optiplex 6300SFF, and I use the same setup. Unfortunately, the gpu does not fit inside the case, so it’s connected via extender cable. It still runs perfectly. I have no problem playing subnautica, a game known for unoptimization, on high settings. Idk why people think they need to spend $500+ on a computer to play games. These budget builds are really what I live for.

thank you so much man for showing your setting i have the same build(dell optiplex 390 with a i5 2400 and gtx 1050 and 8gb ram) and my game was running so badly and you fixed i can actually play the game!!

About to complete this budget build soon. Same Optiplex except with a 1050 ti sc.

I did this exact build starting with a hp 8200 elite with a 2tb hdd ,added the gtx 1050 and 8gb more ram for 12gb ram total and I have MAYBE $20 more in mine than this one. It is a WONDERFUL gaming pc and for the price nothing beats it. MORE ppl should totally do this. It crushes consoles (and before anyone wants to argue ...its a FACT I have ran many benchmarks and I OWN a ps4 ,even visually comparing my pc to the ps4.) To make this pc LOOK like ps4 you would run it at 1080p medium settings. but unlike ps4 you would get triple the frame rate on medium settings. This pc build can EASILY play NEW AAA games like.... Mass Effect Andromeda... 1080p HIGH settings 45fps average. Consoles can't do that.

It's a fucking beast for 220$ in my country they began to sell this tower but with a 1050 ti included for around 400$ .. guess that i'll go with this option

well i just got my HP elite 8200 mid tower core i5 2500 8gb ram and slaped on a MSI AERO ITX 1050 runs like a beauty i recommend that for everyone one with 200 to 300 bucks depending on where you live

Whats ur ram PC / speed? Also did u OC any of ur computer?

Would there be a difference with the core 2 duo e8400. It's 3.0 ghz instead of 3.2. Also did u overclock ?

I have a question,will a gtx 1050 lp work with optiplex 3040SFF.I will change the ram from 4gb to 8gb!

I bought 8gb ram DDR3 1600 but I down clocked to 1333 do you thinks the PC can't handle 1600hz I have Dell optiplex 790

i found a pc with these specs of 467 usd, should i get it? its prebuilt with like $2 usd for shipping

Should I upgrade more RAM to 12gb or upgrade to 1050ti with 8 gb? I am on a real tight budget and any help would help me.

Yo man I found a similar PC with i5 2500 and 8GB RAM for $109. Before I buy it I need to know, Do I just need to connect my GPU to the PC and I'll be able to play or I need to check something before? I don't want to end with a PC without the possibility to add some graphics card ;(

I have a tiny pc ala small build optiplex 390 will a 1050ti 1 fan fit in my pc??

did you build it yourself?

What pc do you recommend with a 3000 series i5 that can be upgraded with a 1050ti and switched to a 240gb ssd + 2tb hdd?

Talking about $225 for the whole PC, I paid $200 just for the GTX 1050 here in my country lol.

did u overclocking the processor for play bf1?
